This is part two of a two-week episode series that I hope expands our understanding of what the Bible has to say about women. Last week, we set the stage with God's intention in the creation of women (ezer kenegdo) and how that is reflected throughout scripture. Today, we dive into specifics about what this practically looks like for women in 2023 – including women in a variety of life seasons and what this means for women in leadership/the church.
